Jack Kerouac je t'aime

Hi modern life, today i’m going to talk about my favorite writer. For my is very dificult choose one, because there are many good writers that I like me. But today, the first write come to my mind is Jack Kerouac. He was a famous American novelist, alongside Williams Burroughs and Allen Ginsberg, is considered a pioneer of Beat Generation. He’s born March 12, 1922 and died October 21, 1969.

The first novel I read was On the road, a classic in the American literature of twentieth century and the beat generation. This novel they based on the travel of Kerouac and his friends across America.  The narrative takes place in the years 1947 to 1950 and shows a specific era in American, in the jazz of the time, the youngs, the poets, the write, and so on.

Recently, I read the novel “The dharma bums”. Is a great novel that I like very much, because, tells the story about Ray Smith, the protagonist, and your friend Ryder, that teaches about Buddhism Zen and introducing in the meditation. Coincidently in the moment that I read this novel, I was interested in the Buddhist and the meditation. I strongly recommend him.

Good bye and xoxoxoxoxoxo.

Best Best Concert in my life

Hi modern life today i’m goin to talk about to my best concert in my short life. It was in the “Estadio Nacional” the 2009. I’m talking about of the radiohead concert, one of my favorite bands. I know about this band thank my sister and thank again to her for take me a this concert.

Well, Radiohead are a very popular band, from Engleand, formed in 1985, his first álbum was  “Pablo Honey” released in 1992 and his last album is “The King of Limbs” release in 2011. The band consists of Thom Yorke lead vocals, guitar and piano, Jonny Greenwood lead guitar, keyboards and other instruments, Colin Greenwood, bass, Phil Selway, drums, and percussion, and Ed O'Brien guitar.

Sadly I have bad memory then I feel that remember very Little, but the first and last song, never forget, also i remember that was a very very long concert, they play a lot of songs, also at a time had technical problems but was fixed, also the stage and the “spectacle” with the screens was great and beautiful.

I enjoyed it and i was very very very happy and also i could see  other great band, I mean Kraftwerk.

Goodbye.

Sociology is a martial art.

Hello modern life again, today I going to write about a video that I like it related whit my career. The video selected is a film called “Sociology is a martial art”. The film is about the sociologist Pierre Bourdieu, Bourdieu was renowned intellectual French, contributing a lot in the theory sociologist. The documentary relate the life academic of Bourdieu explained the principal concept of your theory about reproduction of the inequality,  also the film show the better and the worse moment in your career, the discussing whit other important academic of your age and the participation of Bourdieu in the manifest politic-social.

I like this film because is very useful for understand someone element of the thought of Bourdieu also for know something of the biography this important sociologist. I thinking that film I could be useful when I have the course theory sociological III, because this author is one of the principal of the course this way I will a few notions about this important theory, would be very useful for my career.

My very very very very very very normal semester

Hi modern life, today I’m going write about the best experience in my faculty this semester or the worst experience, really this semester I haven’t the “GREAT experience” neither the worst experience.  This semester has been good, but normally. The course has been not much difficult, except statics two they are a little more difficult. I don’t find money in the floor neither I missed something. But despite the normal of my semester one thing amazing was when I don’t study for a test of statistics and two week later, when the teacher uploading the grade I have a good score in the test, very very good grade almost I think the teacher make a mistake. I was feel really relieved, and well I hope next test of statistics I have other good grade and this semester finish soon because really I want sleep a lot, get out of the city, visit old friend and a lot other things. 

That’s all modern life, good bye.

Free post again.

Hi modern life, today I can choose topic again and today I write about a topic that I like very much and is very important for me, the poetry and specific about my favorite poet Rodrigo Lira. I really don’t remember when start to read poetry but the first poet that read was Rodrigo Lira, specifically the poem “Ars Poétique”. Really good poem, in this Rodrigo Lira write about dictatorship, poetry, art, make intertextuality whit Vicente Huidobro and more! Whatever is a excellent poem. 

Rodrigo Lira was born in 26 of December of 1949 and dies the 26 December of 1981, in Chile. Unfortunately he’s kill yourself in your house. He was suffer a lot in your life besides he endure bipolarity, this mean sometimes he is depressed, sometimes he is maniac, sometimes he is madness. This reflected perfectly in your poetry. The poem “Testimonio de circunstancia” show the angst of Lira or in the meta-poems when is very very very obsessive whit the language you can see the condition maniac of Rodrigo Lira. 

A freak information, the house when Rodrigo Lira lived and died is the red building in Grecia whit Salvador, Ñuñoa.

To conclude, Modern life I recommend a lot read a Rodrigo Lira, because he is a very very good poet. Long live a Lira!

Poema Ars Poetique de Rodrigo Lira

Que el verso sea como una ganzúa
Para entrar a robar de noche
Al diccionario a la luz
De una linterna

Muro de los Lamentos
Lamidos
Paredes de Oído!
cae un Rocket pasa un Mirage
los ventanales quedaron temblando
Estamos en el siglo de las neuras y las siglas
y las siglas
son los nervios, son los nervios
El vigor verdadero reside en el bolsillo
es la chequera
  El músculo se vende en paquetes por Correos

One picture!

Hi modern life!

Today I write about one picture to like me. This picture I see last year in the gallery of World Press Photo in the “Edificio telefónica”. Christian Ziegler took this picture in the Black Mountain Road, Australia. He is a German photojournalist specializing in natural history and science-related topics contributor to National Geographic magazine.

In this picture show southern cassowary (Casuarius casuarius) feeds on the fruit of the blue quandong tree in the forest. Was taken in the 2012 and won the first place in the Photography Contest           organized by World Press Photo in the category “Nature”.

I like very much this picture because the other picture of the gallery is very shocking (beacause show dead children, murder and so on. They are beautiful, but shocking) then this picture is very serene and beautiful. Also the bird of the picture reminded me a Kevin, the bird of the picture UP.

Bye modern life xoxoxoxo.
